[@thatonepsycho5157]

Ricardo Saltos Considering how badly Blizzard is mishandling Jaina, it might be better to get rid of her and have Laura voice another character. And it hurt my soul to say that, because I LIKE Jaina and I like Laura.

Everyone was amazing (as always), but I just love Taliesin's quiet role playing style. Never hogs the spotlight, barely ever gets it really, yet makes his character super real so naturally.

[@machtwo_]

[@xelloskaczor5051]

its actually quite important to do that for roleplaying, so while i agree with you its silly to watch, its something more people should copy.

Is no one going to point out how Matt put in the work to make classic WoW spells into DnD spells? Power Word Shield, Hammer of Justice, Light of the Naaru, Frost Nova! Awesome job haha, so much flavour.

[@jpumbaa1]

D&D has similar spell effects under different names, and homebrewing spells (especially for one shots) isn't as difficult as it first seems. But you're right, still adds that nice extra flavor to the game.

[@Turovale]

Fun fact, most of those are spells are from a home brew dnd game. Most of Warcraft is.

[@gustaafargoan1086]

You did.

[@Grinningfartking6969]

all of the spells in wow are in dnd or pathfinder. wow is pretty much dnd in 3d

[@Turovale]

@Professor Thinker Yes? That doesn’t contradict anything I said.

[@markky3050]

I didnt realise at all the 1st time I watched this through. To be fair to me, ive never really played WoW and when I did it was on a private server with a huge exp boost so I skipped more or less all the cutscenes and dialogue. I mustve not been paying attention the 2nd time I watched this. 3rd time I picked it up immediately. 3rd watch is what I'm on now. Rewatching their one shots after 6-9 months is a really good way to get a semi-fresh experience. Because it isnt part of the main campaign its crammed full of more content meaning your brain (or mine at the very least) doesnt retain the information of what happened like it would with the main campaign where you kind of have to.

"Someday i'll be just like you!"

[@swadow1497]

Best thing is that laura voices jaina and is playing a character who loves jaina. So when she states she sounds wonderful its sort of a double joke XD.

[@edenromanov]

Liams Draenai was my favorite really funny loved the accent, Laura's nerdy gnome was adorable xD

[@Brooke_Corbyn]

It's very strange to watch an ad sung by matthew mercer only to watch a game dmed by matthew mercer

[@Brooke_Corbyn]

lol

[@emthelibrarian]

Loved everyone's characters, but Liam's character had me CACKLING. Great one shot everyone!

[@listofromantics]

Liam as a D&D "Nico Bellic" was pure gold, and so damned funny (like when Travis plays Grog, or Sam plays Scanlan). Fingers crossed for Laura to play a "Jaina Proudmoore" badass sorcerer or wizard in the next campaign. Travis as a Paladin and Taliesin as a Life Cleric were very good fits.

[@danno1111]

I think Liam was moreso channeling John Malcoovich as Teddy KGB.

[@PepicWalrus]

Travis needs to be a Bloodhunter.

[@Chigen_Atomic]

I've been calling an Order of the Lycan Blood Hunter since Travis got that werewolf mini recently, it'll let him have his rage as well as allowing for casting.

[@NinjaPoutine]

Yup, my thought exactly. Not sure about Travis and his paladin tho. Must be hard to come up with something as good as Grog and the way he was playing it.

Funny thing is Red Dragons in WoW are the complete opposite of Red Dragons in DnD. In WoW they're one of the friendliest dragon broods towards mortal races (since they're the brood designated to watch over the mortal races). If they'd have woken it and tried to talk to it, it may have actually offered to help them. Doesn't mean they won't lay the smack down when someone tries to steal from them though.

[@MinesCastttt]

luketfer yeah, even then a red dragon would barely care about someone wanting a dagger, especially if that was all that was taken. They would definitely try to kill you if you took eggs or something directly related dragons. A black dragon would have been better, lore wise, they would prefer the earth more than red, and hate mortals even more

[@luketfer]

I think I know why it was a Red Dragon. In Hearthstone Kobolds and Catacombs mode one of the final bosses is a Red Dragon (and they're using boss characters from that mode). According to the opening dialogue it immediately brands you a thief however this could have been different if they'd have gone a different route due to the wonders of tabletop gaming. Like the Fungus seller is an enemy boss in that mode but here he was a quirky little NPC.

[@TheBloodypimp]

@@luketfer in the expansion there is a card called sleepy dragon. Which is a 8? mana 4 12 taunt.

[@cameronmcewen9666]

What about green dragons in D&D?

[@se7632]

Laura in character is killing me. 😂

[@trashaccountdotjpg3127]

Hard-pressed to find a group of people that enjoy playing D&D together as much as Critical Role

This was so good, I felt a bit better about my past Hearthstone pack money having perhaps fractionally helped towards making this happen :) Now to catch up with Critical Role :D

[@foolbrightw6589]

thats a long haul, hope you have enough time for it with you and youre overwatch vids

[@damiens4601]

So did you catch up ?

[@CheckItADragon]

Break over at 1:52:00

[@shelbyrose4535]

Liam: Kiss my sword. The hilt says "LeeroyJenkins". Lets get this shit started! Fucking golden. 1:05:03

[@timelinestudios3238]

"Is there room for our World of Warcraft Pauldrons in here?" As a WoW player..that was a very real..very deep cut

[@SyRiS7]

Please, god please, let this be a glimpse of Liams character in the next campaign. It's the best.

[@jpumbaa1]

Alas, it was not. But I'm pleased with who he's playing.

[@ShadedGold]

I mean still German

[@joshparker2180]

Matt is scary professional with his mad laughter one sec and straight face the next

[@Zkeleton969]

So they encounter one of the most rng-based bosses, Laura gets the most broken card in hearthstone, they find the modded version of Thunderfury, blessed blade of the windseeker, dance with a magma rager, and they go to fight a candle midget. God I love this DM.

[@spaceman9599]

Four kobolds throw six pickaxes? Hearthstone Kobolds have been working out!

[@lazynoodle6739]

Aw man that was such a fun one-shot. It felt like watching a cartoon with characters boldly making stupid decisions lol
